This is one of the reasons why some otherwise conservative people will vote for Rudy. They see him as a man who will stand up for himself against attacks. He has so many warts yet he does not cower.

and we have turdblossoms like James Webb and John Tester to ignore for the next six years because of a media inspired temper tantrum by people in our own party.

Everybody who decided to bail on the party to protest a couple of queers and some overspending just gave us Harry Reid and prevented even a single conservative judge from being appointed until we get another GOP President. Is the tantrum over yet?

We need to spend less time pouting and more time fixing the problems in the GOP and conservative movement. Neither blinding accepting “the lesser of two evils” nor just staying home are not options.
